Nat Bass shares sweet photos with new partner
Natalie Bassingthwaighte has made her public debut with her new partner, just weeks after announcing her same-sex relationship.
The former Rouge Traders singer was supported by her girlfriend, who the Herald Sun has identified as her previously-unnamed new partner Pip Loth, at a concert in Melbourne on Saturday.
Nat Bass shared a compilation of pictures and video from the day on Instagram, and among the vision were a couple of images of the couple happily holding hands.
Bassingthwaighte’s daughter Harper was also in attendance at the show, as Nat Bass opened the show for headline act Christina Aguilera.
The public display of affection comes just weeks after Bassingthwaighte told Stellar magazine that she was initially “terrified” about revealing her new same-sex relationship to the world, and sought advice from her ex, Rogue Traders bandmate Cameron McGlinchey, about how to handle it.
“I rang Cam and I was hysterical. And he said, ‘It’s OK. This is your truth and you now have to sit in it and stand in it and own it.’ So to have that support from him has been nothing short of beautiful, and I’m very grateful for it,” she said.
“Now I can speak from my own mouth, on my own truth, and that feels rewarding. I’m OK. Everything is OK, and everyone is OK. We’re in a good space. It feels liberating. But before? It’s terrifying and it’s debilitating because you’re waiting for someone to snap a picture of you and make it salacious. To live like that is … oh, it’s not fun. And I’ve been doing that for a little while now. So it’s nice to say it.”
